Hi there,

I found an interesting Avocet cartridge in the shops yesterday. It came in a light blue box, same design as the one their headsets came in. I've only seen teh headset in pictures though.

How does one install an Avocet bottom bracket properly? It has cartridge bearings on both cups and they both have "floating" inner races...It seems to me the whole set up is to be used with a preset BB shell width. Correct?

If you can provide any insight I'd be really grateful.

Many thanks, soon chung Singapore!!!!
